The Roman Empire was the third stage of Ancient Rome. First, Rome was ruled by the Roman kings. Next it was ruled by the Roman Republic which had many civil wars and political conflicts. The Republic was during the time of Julius Caesar who was a dictator and was assassinated in 44 BC.
The Roman Empire, led by an emperor, began after Caesar’s adopted son Octavian won the Battle of Actium over Mark Antony and Cleopatra.
The Romans occupied many modern lands as part of their empire. Some of these include Britain (but not Scotland), Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Germany,Egypt, and the north coast of Africa. The main language spoken by the Romans was Latin, although Greek as an important second language.
The western part of the Roman Empire continued for around 500 years. In the east, including Greece and Turkey, it continued for almost 1,000 years more. The eastern part was called the Byzantine Empire and the capital was Constaninople, which was the ancient name for the modern city of Istanbul in Turkey.
